Adhesive
Unveiling the Tangled Threads of Authenticity
Lyrics
Give rest to the teeth
Encouraging to find peace or relief.
You squeeze your daily lies between
Referring to the habit of inserting falsehoods into daily communication.
Inauthenticity is muffling your speech
Being insincere is hindering effective communication.
Practice what you preach or step off the pulpit
Advocating for aligning actions with spoken beliefs or stepping down from a position of authority.
Can't see shit from your angle when you're so obtuse
Expressing difficulty in understanding due to a lack of clarity.
And articulate in anger and fluent in half-truths
Being eloquent in expressing anger and proficient in half-truths.
Do you see me in actuality
Questioning if the observer sees the speaker as they truly are.
Or do I only exist in relation to you?
Raising the question of existence in relation to others.
How can I hold us together
Challenging the ability to maintain a connection when the other person is consistently unreliable.
When you are consistently one screw loose?
Expressing the difficulty of keeping things intact when the other person is consistently erratic.
Relax your weary feet
Suggesting relaxation and respite for the tired.
You know that you can't run from everything
Acknowledging the impossibility of escaping from all problems.
Doesn't mean you won't try
Despite challenges, one may attempt to escape difficulties.
But lest you forget
Reflecting on a past defeat and the need for companionship.
I was defeated, in need of a friend
Feeling defeated and in need of a friend.
Just a few feet ahead
Friendship is close, but the other person remains unaware.
But you don't see a thing
Blindness to what is beyond one's immediate concerns.
Past the end of your own cigarette
Failing to see beyond personal issues.
Can't see shit from your angle when you're so obtuse
Reiteration of the challenge in understanding due to lack of clarity.
And articulate in anger and fluent in half-truths
Reiterating proficiency in expressing anger and half-truths.
Do you see me in actuality
Repeating the question of true perception by others.
Or do I only exist in relation to you?
Raising doubts about genuine existence in the eyes of others.
Why should I hold us together?
Questioning the responsibility of holding a connection together.
Why am I the one apologizing to you?
Questioning the imbalance in apologizing in the relationship.
I'm forever your adhesive
Expressing enduring loyalty, acting as a metaphorical adhesive.
Use me at your convenience
Offering oneself for use at the convenience of the other.
Give rest to the teeth you squeeze your daily lies between
Repetition of the advice to find rest for the teeth and avoid falsehoods.
Give rest to the teeth you squeeze your daily lies between
Reiteration of the advice to find rest for the teeth and avoid falsehoods.
I'm forever your adhesive, use me at your convenience
Reaffirmation of enduring loyalty and availability for the other's convenience.
Give rest to the teeth you squeeze your daily lies between
Repetition of the advice to find rest for the teeth and avoid falsehoods.
I'm forever your adhesive, use me at your convenience
Final reaffirmation of enduring loyalty and availability for the other's convenience.
